The Law of Attraction

“Like attracts like; energy flows where attention goes.”

The most famous of the modern laws and the heart of 'Your Wish Is Your Command': whatever frequency you broadcast — in thought and feeling — returns to you magnetically. You are a vibrational being in a vibrational universe, drawing to yourself whatever you predominantly focus on.

Also known as

The same law appears across traditions under different names.

  • “Like attracts like”· New Thought
  • “Thought Vibration”· New Thought (Atkinson, 1906)
  • “Sankalpa — focused intention”· Yogic

How to apply it

  • Speak and think about what you want, not what you don't — the law answers your focus, not your preference.
  • Generate the emotion of already having it; feeling is the broadcast frequency.
  • Guard your attention: where it goes consistently is what grows.
